Can you show me some scripture about Jesus' name... as we agree that He is alive...Yeah - there is a very basic problem with your understanding!!!
Jesus Christ is alive!! And His name is called The Word of God!!!! That is His name!!
When He speaks a word that does not mean that word is alive anymore that if you speak a word the word you speak suddenly takes of a life of it's own and starts taking classes at the local college, and gets a job at the local gas station, and goes around making decisions and judgements!!
That is just really silly thinking. That is why we read the word "He" or "Him" after comments on the Word of God.
And how can you possibly think that way and in such a silly manor if you are indeed spending time talking back and forth with Jesus Christ, the Word of God???
Don't you realize that you are talking to a person!!! Don't you realize that those prophets in the past talked to a person???
He goes by a number of names, all based upon what He does, because that is how we know Him!!
He is the "I AM", because He is always around and never leaves us. He is the KING OF KINGS because His Father put Him on the throne of God! He is call "Wonderful Counselor, The Might God, The Everlasting Father, and the Prince of Peace, because He gives wonder counsel, does mighty things, all things were created though Him and for Him, and because through Him you get peace with God. And He is called The Word of God, because He, the Christ, talks to His sheep personally. He does not say a word and that word then says other words, but by His words He can create other beings. That still does not mean His word suddenly is doing the thinking taking action, but rather all things come together as He commands. So He creates, and He can choose to give you life or not give you life, but He is the One making the decisions and ruling, and that according to what His Father tells Him to do.
You have come up with some hilarious thinking, and that can only be because understanding comes from Him mouth and not your leaning on your own understanding. If only you would start talking back and forth with Him you could easily understand that you are talking back and for with a person, even the One whose name is called The Word of God.
BTY .... Christ/Messiah is not Jesus last name for the 2nd time!
Do you actually have any Bible knowledge????
Dr. Hugh Schonfield, in his book the Passover Plot. Reported that many Christians he spoke with were not even aware that the term "Christ" was simply a Greek translation of the Hebrew title Messiah, and thought somehow that it referred to the Second Person of the Trinity. "So connected had the word ‘Christ’ become with the idea of Jesus as God incarnate that the title ‘Messiah’ was treated as something curiously Jewish and not associated.”
N.T. Write, the Bishop of Litchfield, agrees: “One of the most persistent mistakes throughout the literature on Jesus and the last hundred years is to use the word ‘Christ,’ which simply means ‘Messiah’, as though it was a ‘divine’ title.” Who was Jesus? p.57.
According to its OT usage, the term Messiah, the Anointed One, indicates a call to office.
Most certainly, it was not the title of an aspect of the Godhead. This is a later Gentile invention that came about by ignoring Jesus’ Jewish context and inventing a doctrine called the Incarnation- the idea that a second member of the Trinity, God the son, became a human being. As Lockhart says, in Jesus the Heretic, p.137. “Christianity ignored the ‘Messiah’ and theologically worked the ‘Christ’ up into the ‘God-Man.’ Jesus as the ‘Messiah’ is a human being; Jesus as the ‘Christ’ is something entirely different.”
Jesus calls himself "a man" (John 8:40) "But as it is, you are seeking to kill Me, a man who has told you the truth, which I heard from God; this Abraham did not do. and the apostles call him "a man" (Acts 2: 22; 1 Tim. 2:5). Act 2:22 "Men of Israel, listen to these words: Jesus the Nazarene, a man attested to you by God with miracles and wonders and signs which God performed through Him in your midst, just as you yourselves know-- 1Ti 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator also between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, He is constantly contrasted with and distinguished from God, his Father.
The Hebrew Bible or OT, predicted Jesus would be a man (Is.53:3). But never does the scriptures use the term "God-Man" to tell us who Jesus is. The Greek language of the day had a perfectly good word for “God-Man” (theios aner) but it never appears in the New Testament. So why do we persist with these extra-biblical terms? Why do we continue to employ non-biblical (i.e. unbiblical) language to describe Jesus?
The Bible verse saying is true which says that we are very quick to spot the speck in the eye of another's theology, but how blind we are to the beam in our own. Mary is not the mother of God, according to the scriptures. And neither is Jesus God the Son, nor is he the "God-Man" according to the Bible. And he is nowhere called "God of from God" as the later Nicene Creed called him. Protestants, people of the Bible ought to know that the contentious extra-biblical word used at Nicea, homoousios, meaning ‘of equal substance,’ “did not come from Scripture but, of all things, from Gnostic systems.” Quote from Born Before All-Time? p. 500. Kuschel.
The result was that such terminology introduced alien notions into Christian understanding of God. In other words, "an epoch-making paradigm shift has taken place between Scriptures and Nicea.” Born Before All-Time? p. 503. Kuschel
To the Jewish mind, accustomed to Old Testament teaching on the principles of agency and representation by which God appoints a man to speak or act on his behalf, such a concept was both familiar and acceptable. Whilst it is true that some of Christ's enemies believed him to be usurping or laying claim unlawfully to certain Divine rights or powers, not a single Jew ever thought that the miracles performed by Christ proved that he was a Divine being, and the gospel record indicates that many recognised that he was a man Divinely appointed to exercise power and authority on God's behalf.
